Name: Bruiser
Alternate Names: Tank
Number: 4
Distinguishing features: Extremely large and muscular. Exceedingly strong, enough to rip steel like paper. Do not go down easy.
Behavior: Very distinguishable, not afraid to walk into gunfire since it doesn't do much to them. May appear in groups but doesn't need to be to be dangerous.
Appearance: Like Mike Tyson if he went on steroids and stopped talking. Very tall and large, likely around the size of an SUV, which they can easily pick up.
Other: Never, ever, get close to them by any means. Aim for the head if no explosives are available.

Name: Screamer
Alternate Names: Shrieker, Howler, Banshee
Number: 5
Distinguishing features: None. Appears like a normal infected.
Behavior: When spotting prey, the Screamer will begin its infamous shriek, causing its prey to go to the ground in pain. Exposure to this type of noise can damage hearing permanently. The scream also brings in other infected, who are unaffected by the noise.
Appearance: Normal infected.

Name: Stalker
Alternate Names: Hunter
Subtype: Berserkers, Predators
Number: 6
Distinguishing features: Aside from the hunch of any Stalker's final attack, those belonging to the Berserker subgroup typically produce a sadistic grin at the sight of a target, revealing rows of jagged teeth intended for ripping at a victim's throat. They also appear intelligent and when spied in a horde, often try to blend in or take a commanding role. Often in the presence of a Stalker, you feel a sort of caring, obsessive intelligence about them.
Behavior: A stalker will follow its intended prey indefinitely, locking onto their distinctive scent and not deviating from course unless it loses the scent of the target, though this is rare. Once close enough to their victim, a stalker will drop to a crouch and sprint toward them, sometimes lunging to cover the last few feet. Unlike other previously recorded Wreaker types, Stalkers are unique in that they have two variations. A Predator subtype will thrash its target until it can no longer put up resistance, then bite it to spread the infection and guard it fiercely until it changes. The simpler Berserker type, however, will "play with" and torture a target until they either die or are rendered unconscious, at which point they will drag them to a private location to feast. All Stalkers are protective of their prey, exerting their dominance by ensuring that they are the sole predator to eat until their hunger is satiated or their prey turns.

It is also noticeable that prey targeted by Stalkers almost always turn into Stalkers and sometimes other special infected. It seems Stalker will only chase prey that they know somehow will turn into a specialized Wreaker. Beserkers however, seem to target those in charge or with influence, and will often times try to remove them. They also seem to target those that will provide the most nutrients to them.

Stalkers also are the most intelligent of Wreakers, and will become obsessive of their prey. They will follow them over long distances and will never give up unless they lose the scent, and even then, if they pick up a previous scent, they will stop chasing their current prey and start chasing the new one. Stalkers also memorize the specific scent, speech, or other characteristics of their prey. They even will target friends and family in an effort to draw their prey out. Stalkers have nearly the same speed as Racers, and above-average strength. They also can go years without food.
Appearance: Stalkers are usually very lithe and athletic, though the Berserker class has much more developed muscle tone than Predators, used to inflict great bodily harm upon its prey.
